I have 1 more after this one, my feather footed fancier. Last night, they all piled into one box again. Playing which head goes to which body in this mess is fun!View attachment 3104643

That is too cute!!

She found out what it's like to get "bit"

She sure did!

I am really sad about Bernadette. Her leg is not getting better. I think it is getting worse but very slowly. I am all out of ideas - she is already getting a full load of vitamin supplements.
She is now old enough that it could be Marek's, though it started when she was too young for that, and she is vaccinated.
Over the next couple of days I am going to build a ground floor brooder underneath their current penthouse suite and will move them all in there. None of them are getting out and about and I think it is because of Bernadette's mobility. I am hoping that at ground level she will be more confident to explore and the others will be more unleashed as well.
I am assuming that I should move them in the dark like I would for a grown chicken?
It is all so sad - she continues to be feisty and to be eating and pooping like a champion.

Thirsty Thursday
Here is Bella savoring vitamin water. Do you all think it looks like she will have muffs?

I think she will have ear tufts, not muffs, but it may just be the angle?

Auracona with ear tufts.

You have my sympathy, here in central Texas we'll hit upper 90s this coming Monday

Ear tufts would be cool. But I am so besotted with her feet and a funny habit she has if running back and forth while flapping that I don’t really care!

I tried to get Rosie to drink for a photo, but she was too busy trying to put hay on her back its been 3 or 4 weeks, time to leave broodyhood! If the weather was better i think she might have.

Summer is way too early
